I had problems with the clutch disengaging. turned out the slave cylinder was leaking. I replaced it with a new one, bled it and took it for a test drive. It...
It sounds as though the clutch master cylinder is leaking internally, i.e., fluid pressure is weeping past the rubber lip seal on the master cylinder piston...

My humble opinion is that Armour-all is over rated. Silicon by itself will not keep the UV rays out. Best thing you can do for your soft top is to use...
... Yes if NOT cloth. If cloth, go to Walmart get water sealer from Hunting Dept. aka 3m or the "plain wrap" can called: SILICONE WATER GUARD. $4.50 CAN PS: 2...
I tried armor all on my 96 and the top didn't last. The zipper tore out, so I can't say it was the protectants fault. Moss motors and several other companies...

Heard good stuff about the westco sealed unit, but that the terminals are reversed. Is this a problem? My cables are pretty tight... It's funny, I see the...
Ok, checked around and looks like the westco battery is ok. Seems like a sweet deal. Here's one shop: http://www.gomiata.com/wessealbat.html and their...
Think a luggage rack on the trunk is useful? found what looks like a pretty good one for about $200. A little pricey but we all know how hard it is to take a...
Any one ever change out there top themselves. I have a 1991 that the rear window cracked up bad. Been looking on E-bay but not sure what is best, and if it's...
I'm sure it has been asked before. How,where can I get a smart key with the doors,trunk and panic buttons. For an 08 grand touring. Got a used one today only...
... If you are handy with basic tools, and can follow directions, and have a little patience, you probably can do it yourself. My experience is changing the...
I haven't (yet) bought a luggage rack for my Miata. However, back in the 70's, I owned an MGB which had a permanently attached luggage rack on the trunklid....

What Angie said is very true. Nitrous is for short term results with long term consequences. If you have a racing budget, and can afford to replace engines...
Not pointing fingers in any direction, but Nitrous on street cars is what people who saw The Fast and the Furious too many times resort to instead of actually...
I think I would have to totally agree with David our MIATAs are classified as roadsters. They are supposed to be sporty, smart stance cars, and should make us...
